Bobby Knight Meets God
(1 votes, average: 5 out of 5)
Loading ...Three coaches flew to the NCAA Convention. The plane crashed, and all three died. They all noticed God up in the clouds sitting in a chair.
God motioned for one of them to come into the clouds. Then he wanted to know three things: “Who are you? What did you do? What did people think of you?”
The first coach said, “I’m Denny Crum. I was the second-best coach in the nation. I won two national championships and over 20 games a year. The people of Kentucky think I’m great.”
God said, “Fine, Denny. Stand on my right side.”
The next person said, “I’m Rick Pitino. I was the third-best coach in the nation. I won an SEC Championship and turned the program around to a fairly respectable one. The people of Kentucky think I’m great.”
God said, “Fine, Rick. Stand on my left side.”
The third person stood before God and said, “I’m Bobby Knight, and I’ve won three national championships, 2 NIT championships the Pan Am Games, the Olympics, 9 Big Ten championships, and I was the youngest coach ever to win 600 games. The people of Indiana think you are sitting in my chair.”
